Title: Fabric light control window shade with opaque fabric vanes bonded
Inventor: COLSON WENDELL B
IPC: B29C65/02
Filed: 1991-06-10
Abstract: A fabric light control window covering in which fabric vanes 10a are adhesively bonded between two sheer fabric sheets 72,96 such that relative movement between the sheer fabric sheets in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the fabric vanes changes the angle of the fabric vanes and, thus, controls the amount of light admitted through the shade. The vanes are bonded to the sheer fabric sheets in a manner which tends to bias the sheer fabric sheets together to the non-light admitting position. Also, disclosed are methods and apparatus for manufacturing the above window covering. The method features linear application of adhesive to the vane material which provides for a uniform appearance in the finished product. A heat setting process and apparatus is disclosed in which the bonded layers of sheer fabrics and vanes are fed between belts over hot and cool surfaces, under uniform tension and pressure. This provides for heat setting of the layers of the window covering to a uniform temperature-size relationship without inducing wrinkles or distortion into the fabric during heat setting. <IMAGE>

Title: Radiation activation and screening of catalyst libraries for catalyst evaluation and reactors therefor
Inventor: ATKINS MARTIN PHILIP
IPC: G01N31/10
Filed: 1998-10-08
Abstract: Rapid screening for activities and selectivities of catalyst libraries having addressable test sites is achieved by contacting potential catalysts at the test sites with reactant gas to form product plumes at the addressable test sites. The product plumes are screened by passing a radiation beam of an energy level to promote formation of specified photoions and photoelectrons that are detected in real time by microelectrode collection in situ in proximity to the respective addressable test site. The product plumes may be screened row by row, or all product plumes emanating from an entire catalyst library may be simultaneously screened. A microreactor suitable for the above process comprises an inert substrate body (70); a reactor passageway extending from a first opening on one side of the substrate body to a second opening on the opposite side of the substrate body; a reaction zone (72) in the central portion of the reactor passageway to enable contact of reactants with a catalyst in the reaction zone; a reactant zone of the reactor passageway extending from the reaction zone serving as a reactant feed passage (71); a product zone of the reactor passageway extending from the reaction zone to the second opening serving as a product exit passage (75); a radiation beam passageway (76) extending through the substrate body substantially perpendicular to and intersecting the product zone, wherein the radiation beam passageway has radiation beam access windows providing passage of a radiation beam (77) and fluid isolation of the radiation passageway from the product zone; and a microelectrode (78) in the product zone in proximity to the intersection of the radiation beam passageway with the product zone.
